6:18Now PlayingFox News hosts Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity have been accused of sexual harassment in a new lawsuit, and former Fox reporter Ed Henry is being accused of rape in the same suit.

Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

According to a bombshell new lawsuit filed on Monday. Two women are accusing various Fox news personalities. One of them of rape and the others of sexual harassment. Here's what's going on. Uh, two women filed this lawsuit begins the network. One of them says that former Fox news national correspondent, Ed Henry raped her. And the other woman claims that several Fox news personalities, including Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity sexually harassed her. Now, Fox news appears to be taking the allegations against Ed Henry seriously because they fired him when they knew that these allegations were about to come forward. Uh, he was fired just a few weeks ago, so they knew that was going to be bad. So they decided to get rid of him with regard to Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity. Well, those guys are still on the network. However, Tucker Carlson did just go on that sudden vacation as Fox news hosts typically do whenever something bad is about to happen or whenever something bad has just happened.
In the case of Tucker, it was both. He had been doing hugely racist things on this program. And of course, Fox news knew that these allegations were about to drop. So that's why that happened. Now. Here's what the lawsuit test. Uh, the woman accusing Ed Henry of rape says that, uh, you know, he had raped her. His attorneys say that, Nope, this was a consensual sexual relationship, but of course, once the relationship was broken off, then Ed Henry wanted nothing to do with her. Wouldn't uh, put her on the air because this woman was a frequent guest on Fox news. But according to her lawyers, she did, even though she wasn't a real employee, she did fit the definition of technically being an employee at the network, which is why she is allowed to Sue, uh, at Henry allegedly, according to the suit, once she didn't let her him rape her anymore, uh, wouldn't put her on the air.
The other woman, uh, was a producer at the network. And one of the things that she says in the lawsuit is that, uh, prior to, uh, on Hannity's show, one evening, he took out $100 bill, slopped it on his desk, in the studio in front of the entire production crew said, somebody, please take this woman on it. Date here's a hundred bucks. Take her on a date to Del Frisco's steakhouse right across the street from the Fox news studios in Manhattan. Uh, take her on a date to Del Frisco's please date this woman, you know, totally embarrassing her, essentially shaming her for not being able to get a date in front of every single person that she works with at that network. She had reported obviously that this made her feel very uncomfortable and yes, this was absolutely inappropriate behavior. She then says, okay, different incident, Tucker Carlson, let her know that he's going to be staying in a hotel in New York city that evening and that his wife wouldn't be there, that his kids wouldn't be there, but that she should be there when she politely declined.
Tucker Carlson essentially, uh, cut her off. Oh, actually, I'm sorry. This was the, uh, the woman who was a frequent guest because after she declined his invitation, this is the woman who accused Ed Henry, uh, after she declined Tucker's invitation, she stopped getting appearances on his show. Two, he retaliated against her.
